Latest news and updates about the White Sox
The last week has been a difficult one for the San Diego Padres. Perhaps the first such week since Opening Week. The Friars dropped five of their last eight contests, but they managed to stave off a sweep with yesterday’s win over the Chicago White Sox. It was exactly what San Diego needed. Newcomer Griffin […]

The big news today came from a player participating in very likely his last game in Double-A: Braden Montgomery, South Side Sox’s No. 1 White Sox prospect, is joining the Triple-A Charlotte Knights on his way up to the South Side. Montgomery has been outstanding so far in 2026, slashing .313/.429/.606 and hitting six homers […]

If you wanted to know how the San Diego Padres were doing the season, just watch the ninth inning of their 4-0 loss to the Chicago White Sox at Petco Park on Saturday night. The good news was Jeremiah Estrada returned from his stint on the IL. The right-hander made quick work of the three […]
Charlotte Knights 21, Gwinnett Stripers 1The Charlotte Knights (15-17) routed he Gwinnett Stripers (20-12), 21-1, as the Knights offense exploded for 22 hits while the pitching staff held Gwinnett to just six knocks and one earned run.

Last night, the San Diego Padres took a shellacking from the Chicago White Sox, eventually losing 8-2. The trouble started early, with Germán Márquez giving up six runs in the second inning. That inning was the difference maker in San Diego’s eventual loss to the Sox. It was a tough loss to take, but this […]

1901 The White Sox were part of the first forfeit in American League history. After the Detroit Tigers took a lead with five runs in the top of the ninth, rain began. White Sox players began stalling, hoping to have the game wash out and be called as of the last full inning played (the […]
The San Diego Padres had the bases loaded with two outs in the bottom of the first inning. Ty France was standing in the batter’s box after Xander Bogaerts battled through an at-bat to draw a walk. France has been one of the hottest hitters on the Padres roster in recent weeks, but he was […]
The White Sox have been worse than .500 all season long, so declaring them a must-watch team seems a bit hyperbolic. But Friday’s 8-2 annihilation of a Padres team very strong out of the gate — 5 1/2 games better than Chicago entering play — touched on the three players most likely to make you […]
Gwinnett Stripers 4, Charlotte Knights 3The Knights seemed to be doing fine with their 1-0 lead, courtesy of an RBI double from Oliver Dunn in the fifth, but then Luke Bell took the mound. After seven strong games in High-A, the decision to advance Bell to Triple-A and bypass Birmingham turned out to be a […]
Welcome to Noah Schultz Night! And quite a late night it is, with the White Sox back on the West Coast, taking on the high-flying Padres. Basically beyond his first inning in the major leagues, Schultz has been spectacular, certainly better than advertised for a 22-year-old whose 2025 wasn’t terribly impressive/marred by injury. A new […]

1901 In the dead ball era, homers were sparse. In fact, the White Sox went their first four official American League games without one. But on this day, the offense exploded by banging out 16 hits to bury Detroit, 19-9. The onslaught marked the first time in the AL that the White Sox hit two […]
Gwinnett Stripers 9, Charlotte Knights 5Shane Smith, battered last time out, gave Charlotte (14-16) what they needed with two scoreless. He surrendered only one hit, two walks, and three Ks. Of course, the good times didn’t last long. Enter Chase Plymell, and cue the disaster reel. Three singles, then a meatball grand slam in the […]
Somehow, the White Sox have managed to meet the wildest of expectations in the first month of the 2026 season. Get embarrassingly swept? Check. Sweep the defending AL pennant-winner? Check. Lose several players for the season? Again, check. Be somehow one of the best but also worst teams in several hitting and pitching categories? You […]
The San Diego Padres dropped a series for the first time since the opening week of the season with a 5-4 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday, but they had opportunities to prevent that. In the end, the offense did not do enough, and the bullpen struggled to keep runs off the board. Miguel […]
The high likelihood of a 2027 work stoppage has been floating in the background for a while now, tied to the upcoming expiration of the current collective bargaining agreement. How will this affect our Sox? The easy answer is that it depends a lot on where they are in their timeline. The more honest answer […]
